BLOCK RPG is a mobile puzzle RPG that plays like Puzzle Fighter, not Tetris. Place shape blocks onto an 8x8 grid to clear full rows and columns. Every line you clear triggers an attack from your team of elemental Heroes against waves of incoming Enemies. But watch your board — if it fills up and you can't place a piece, you take penalty damage. It's not about clearing lines fast. It's about clearing them at the right moment. FIGHT WITH FIVE ELEMENTS Fire, Water, Earth, Light, and Dark. Match a Hero's element when you clear blocks to deal bonus damage. Enemies attack on a timer that ticks down with every piece you place — so plan your placements to burst them down before the clock hits zero. BUILD YOUR RUN After every battle, choose from three random upgrades to shape your team. Stack damage boosts, healing, damage-over-time Scorch builds, consecutive-trigger Shock multipliers, area-of-effect Resonance, and more. Rarer upgrades hit harder — chase the Legendary drops. DAILY CURSES Every day brings a new Curse that changes the rules and keeps each run fresh and strategic. WEEKLY TOURNAMENT Complete runs to add to your weekly score. Climb the leaderboard. Scores reset every Monday at midnight — so there's always a new week to win. Quick to learn, deep to master. Drop in for one run or chase the weekly crown.
